[Corpora-List] Please help-urgent Wordsmith Tools advice needed!

[Hunter, Duncan]

Hi all,

 

I have been doing a Wordsmith Tools concordance using as search terms 'activity/activities'.  Doing the same concordance using the search term activit* gives the same concordance list, but a rather different set of collocates when doing MI3, log like scores et al. 

 

Which is the 'correct' search term if I want to know about activity AND activities (as a lemma)?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Duncan Hunter

Subject: [Corpora-List] Corpus-based research on attitudinal sentenceadjuncts


Hello, 
 
Can anybody point me to corpus research on sentence adjuncts which embody the speaker's attitude to what they are saying. I am particularly interested in: personally, in my view, in my opinion, and frankly.
 
Many thanks.
